Article 44 (2) of the same Act provides that a driver shall comply with a breath test by a police officer when it is deemed necessary for the safety of traffic and the prevention of danger or when there is a considerable reason to recognize that a person driving a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol is under the influence of alcohol. Thus, in order to establish the crime of refusing to take a breath test, a legitimate breath test is required by a police officer. However, a request for a breath test when there is a considerable reason to recognize that a person driving a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol is under the influence of alcohol restrictions on the freedom of action of a person. However, considering the seriousness of a breath test caused by a breath test, it is not subject to the warrant requirement of warrant requirement.

Parts of innocence

1. Facts charged;

On June 9, 2012, around 19:35, the Defendant: (a) caused a traffic accident on the street near the network property of the Chungcheongnam-gun, Chungcheongnam-gun; and (b) was measured by Nonindicted 5 at the police station south of the Chungcheongnam-gu Police Station, which called the scene, and was demanded by Nonindicted 5 to take a measurement of alcohol reduction; and (c) despite the above Nonindicted 5’s demand for a alcohol measurement, the Defendant did not comply with the police officer’s measurement despite there were reasonable grounds to recognize that Nonindicted 6 driven by Nonindicted 6 of the Defendant was under the influence of alcohol by flying the breath of the number breath, which was driven by Nonindicted 5, the Defendant, without undergoing a alcohol alcohol measurement, even though he was required by the above Nonindicted 5 to move the breath to the above breath police station.

2. Determination

The crime of refusing to take a alcohol test under Article 148-2 (1) 2 of the Road Traffic Act is established when a person who has a reasonable ground to be recognized as being under the influence of alcohol refuses to take a test by a police officer pursuant to Article 44 (2) of the same Act. Article 44 (2) of the same Act provides that a driver shall comply with a police officer's breath test in cases where it is deemed necessary for the safety of traffic and the prevention of danger or where there are reasonable grounds to recognize that a person driving a motor vehicle, etc. under the influence of alcohol is under the influence of alcohol. Thus, in order to establish the crime of refusing to

However, in a case where there are reasonable grounds to recognize that a person driving a motor vehicle, etc. under the influence of alcohol is under investigation (see Supreme Court Decision 2004Do8404, Nov. 9, 2006; Supreme Court Decision 2012Do1162, Dec. 13, 2012) the demand for a breath test is a kind of investigation (see Supreme Court Decision 2004Do8404, Nov. 9, 2006; Supreme Court Decision 2012Do1162, Dec. 13, 2012). However, as an exception to the warrant requirement, in light of the seriousness of harmful effects caused by a drunk driving, the breath test is weak to the degree that the breath test infringes on the driver's freedom, it is subject to strict interpretation of the requirement for a breath test. In addition, the requirement for a breath test and compulsory investigation can only be deemed a legitimate request for a breath test (see Article 19 of the Criminal Procedure Act).

On the other hand, it is difficult to view that there was a legitimate request for a breath test on the part of the Defendant, as to whether there was a legitimate request for a breath test on the part of the police officer to move the vehicle to the South in the scene of a traffic accident, and it is difficult to view that there was a legitimate request for a breath test on the part of the Defendant. From the perspective of evidence, the Defendant was requested by the police officer to accompany the above police officer to the remaining breath for a breath test immediately after the reaction of drinking at the request of Nonindicted 5 police officer, who was called to the scene of a traffic accident. Accordingly, the Defendant started first by deeming the Defendant to go to go to the remaining breath of the Defendant’s father, who was under contact with the Defendant, going to go to the remaining breath box, but the Defendant was forced to go to contact with the above police officer without leaving the remaining breath box, and there is no evidence to acknowledge that the Defendant was a legitimate request for a breath test from the police officer.

Therefore, this part of the facts charged constitutes a case where there is no proof of facts constituting the crime and thus, is acquitted under the latter part of Article 325 of the
